It would be nice if Fred and Mary attend the Funeral of Prince Bernard.

Why would Frederik and Mary attend the funeral when everyone else attending is much older than them and with a higher rank than them? Frederik probably never even met Bernhard. It makes much more sense for Henrik to go. Or the Queen or even Benedikte but NOT Frederik and Mary or Joachim.
It has already been announced that PRINCE HENRIK will attend the funeral.

I only say "it would be nice if they attend" i do not say they must attend.It will be nice if they attend,and if they can not,it's OK,no problem.Why you compare that other Royals have higher rank than them and they can not attend?Who have given that law?All of them are Royals no one higher or lower.You must look at yourself,are you Royal?Do not pay so much attention about that,they go,it can show their respect to Prince Bernhard. You always complain everything when you post!

Does this mean the Danish Royal Family would attend a church memorial service for those people who died in the tsunami disaster in South Asia?

I just read in the danish tabloid BT, that the danish royal family is donating in all 300.000 kr (nearly 43.000 euros) to the different foundations and organisations that they each have as their protections.

Margrethe and Henrik: 100.000 kr (around 15.000 euros) to five different helporganisations

Frederik and Mary: 50.000 kr (around 7000 euros) to Red Barnet which is one of Marys Protections and the same to Danish red cross which is Frederiks Protection.

Joachim and Alexandra: 100.000 to Unicef

umm...just one question....looking at the numbers......Fred and Mary seems to donate the least $$ when compare with Jochiam and Alexandra and the Queen and Henrik....i thought the crown princely couple has more income ($$) than Prince Joachima and Princess Alexandra

I think the point should not be stressed in how much individuals (including celebrities and royal persons) donate but that they donate at all.

People should donate what they feel comfortable with donating; it is not a competition to see who can donate more money in the Danish royal family.

Frederik and Mary donated something and that is good enough; every little bit counts and matters in these relief efforts not who donates how much.

Fred and Mary gave the exact same amount as the Queen and Henrik, as well as the exact same amount as Joachim and Alexandra - 50,000 kr to Red Barnet and 50,000 kr to the Red Cross, for a total donation of 100,000 kr.

thank you for ur clarification...cuz i was just saying it's kinda of weird for the crown princely couple to donate a different amount than the queen and prince henrik and jochiam and alexandra
